Re: [Phpwiki-talk] Secure operation

There is a problem with base hrefs when virtual_path and data_path are 
different. As a quick fix I set the links to use a full url, it's probably 
not too difficult to fix but I just haven't made the time to look at it 
yet.

For example look at the paths on the alpha server:

data_path:
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/phpwiki.css etc.
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/images/
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/theme/

virtual_path:
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/en/
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/de/
http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/macosx/
